The BEST Hip Opener
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 28 апр 2020
- Are your stiff hips limiting you from squatting or deadlifting with great technique? The half kneeling weight shift is one of my favorite hip openers for improving hip mobility. Try a set of 10 reps for a 5" hold and then re-test your squat or deadlift and see if this is right for you!

#squatclub sir i am a fitness trainer and by your videos I get really help my clients achieve their goals fast thank you. Sir i want your squat bible book really bad I want tk read that 💓
my question is: when i squat my knees travel alot forward (i have alot of dorsiflexion, srsly i have alot) and i only feel my quats mainly when squatting, i do ATG squats in flat shoes only because i don't find any help from the posterior chain while squatting so stopping after paralel feels so hard on the quads and nothing on the glutes, how can i aproach this issue? i have clearly anterior pelvic tilt from sitting all day but im working on fixing it everyday
Great Content! Thank you!
Is there a chance that Hip stiffness and pain in the pelvic area while deep squatting is because of lack of internal rotation?
Does this hit the abductors??
hello sir it will do before squat exercise or post workout
This guy..... I hope he makes millions. He deserves it. Can't tell you how much he's helped me.
Yeah this guy and kneesovertoes are top notch
Amen
Several current high-skill job titles with a PhD + 1bil+ youtube views (and other social media) and many book sales. He's most likely doing very well.
I completely agree.
There’s more to life than “millions”
This guy is literally undoing years of sitting damage caused from sitting in a car four hours a day followed by a desk for about 5-6 more hours. No wonder my back would flare up and knees ache on drives. Thank You doctor!
It only took one exercise to minimalise pain???!! Let me know how it goes....my back is fucked right now
@@ryanhi6199how r u now
Literally one of the best channels on RUclips!
Figuratively one of the best too!
I think I'm gonna try this next time I go to the gym , good stuff.
Yeah, so good, there are a lot of good channels but so often I find that one extra or important cue/ tip from these guys.
Yes one of the best

I am so glad that I started to follow you. Your explanation of McGill 3 big fixed my low back pain in one session after being in pain for 2 years
You’ve helped me so much man keep up the quality work
Adding this to my ever growing evening stretching-routine 👌👌
This one of the best channel for this niche. Learnt a lot on assessing myself and technique and mobility drills. Thank you very much 🙏
Awesome stuff love it !! Thanks for another in a long line of great videos
Doctor, could you please make a video how to DEADLIFT properly. Lots of love and support for you!
I'll see what I can put together. Thanks for the suggestion.
I'm just learning about this routine. I hope it relives some of my lower back pain.
Excellent vid. Just tried some, will add to my routine.
Thanks!
Glad to help!
Hells dude, one try at this and problem identified, nearly solved. You are the oracle Dr Aaron 🙏🏽
One of the only RUclips shorts that actually did something for me...by bringing me to this useful video.
Ty Aaron, I gonna try this today n definely buy ur book💣💣
This looks awesome, thanks! If you are seeking ideas for content, perhaps a mobility prep for kettlebell exercises like KB snatch or KB TGUs? I have been getting more into KB work and these would be valuable for me.
This one is great! Thank you!
Thank you!! Great challenge
I keep this one in rotation because of how much you hit on it.
I can tell I haven’t really unlocked it yet though. Thanks for all the instruction.
Thank you for this great exercise. I finally opened my hips, especially my right hip. After this I could squat deeper and it felt good. I'll do it as a warm up before goblet squats, kettlebell deadlifts, swings, high pulls, snatches and Turkish get ups. I wish your channel more and more likes, subscribers and positive comments )))
Appreciate your efforts
Thank you very much, Doc!
This really helped. Thank You Sir!
I literally had strained my SI joint months ago. Took time off and stretched but it kept coming back. Did this stretch tonight and wow. Almost instant relief. Still some stiffness when I lay down in the middle of my lower back but it's definitely getting better.
No way!! Literally???? All this time we all thought just figuratively.
@@sheldor73 probably the most unfunny thing I’ve ever seen
@@sheldor73 I bet you're a lot of fun at parties.
@@sheldor73 I hope your life gets better. Only miserable people go out of their way to do things like this, so genuinely I hope your life gets better in whatever ways you need them to so you can become a better individual.
P.S. happy you were doing better Ryan and I hope you are all healed now.
Thanks for sharing
Would love to see how you determine what your warm-up will be for that days workout.
My right leg is a lot less mobile than my left leg. That probably explains why I have problems with squats. I've always wondered what I could do to fix my hip problem. Thanks for the video!
You answered your own question
@@Basement811 He wasn’t asking a question
Excellent video thank you. I’ve had a left hip and right knee replacement/resurface over the past three years. I am box squatting ( not a lot of weight) but lack good flexion in the knee 126deg. Right hip is really tight, so I will give this opener a try to see if Ian helps.. many thanks
So helpful I love your videos
Best exercise I ever tried for hip mobility !
good tips. thx
Feels great before workouts gets you ready for the big weights coming up in the session
Exceptional content as always!
Thanks John
Thanks for the exercise
Thank you for this 👍
Big thx for your content!!!!!
This is gold
Yes I really need a daily hip stretching and shoulders too.
Absolute Hero Aaron
Can't wait to try
Great advice!
Nice tips
The best sports doc in the game !!!!
I dont deadlift, but this way of stretching is also very nice for climbers. I lack some hip mobility so this does help out thanks
excellent tutorial
Great video. I kept looking around the gym to see what you have in there.... HOME GYM TOUR VIDEO??!??!
The most underrated channel !!!
As a martial artist, I can tell you that his hip mobility videos have improved my kicks tremendously. This guy is awesome.
This hip opener helped me alot in just 1 day i can see changes how my hip get flexible
Great video!
Thank you!
Great biomechanical exercise. The muscle tension is controlled by the brainstem and to much tension is always a sign for threat response of the brain. So it makes sense to check that too...
My left ankle mobility is affecting my left hip. Thanks to Dr Aaron for the book Rebuilding Milo with the video, it’s easier with the video.
Thank you!
This stretch works!
This is good thank you
Awesome!! Great information as always Dr! Where were you 35 years ago…lol
Thansk a lot 🎉
you’re awesome thanks
Feels good for sure
I have trouble on one side to push back up. The muscle on top of the "standing" leg is too weak :( And I struggle keeping the core engaged. I like this channel. I keep finding out things I have to work on :)
I had terrible lower back pain, something I have never had an issue with. After a couple days I was able to determine the source was from both hips, directly below the hip bones. I assume the hip flexors. I tried every type of stretch imaginable, Hip Airplane, The weight shift as shown, etc. It took three weeks and all of a sudden the pain, stiffness and discomfort disappeared overnight. Its not prevented me from squatting, but tonight it felt much more smooth and fluid. Do you recommend anything I can do as a preventive? Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge in your videos.
gold.ty
Wow this is amazing. Only thing that has improved internal rotation for me. Everything else didnt improve mobility and just hurt my MCL
Fantastic
Awesome stuff Dr A, as always, I’ll be adding this one into my soft tissue routine!
Good stuff.
Looks like the old hurdler stretch 👍🏼
Nice!
I’ve tried multiple stretches, Physio, hip openers etc due to years of knee, hip and back pain. My left leg has always felt stronger and more balanced than my right leg. This affects me when I walk, squat, drive etc. After trying this stretch properly for the first time, I had an instant improvement!! It felt like I all of a sudden had access to parts/muscles of my right leg that I didn’t use to. I felt a lot more balanced standing on both feet, and walking felt great! An absolute revelation!!
Thank you and keep doing God’s work you legend! 💪🏾
Can you do a full video for stretching before and after a deadlift or a squat excersise?
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥VERY HELPFUL 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
This dude saved my knee and my shoulder before it was too late 😅
If you upload a video about hip external rotation pain would help me a lot!
Ty
How do I prevent knee pain on kneeling leg while doing this stretch? I use a cushion or a soft mat and still get patellar discomfort and slight pain.
Awesome!
Man's legendary
Hi, great vid :D what if my hips are always thight? Should I do mobility every day or only when I need squat etc? Or maybe every day is too much?
When I stretch my right hip I get a sense that I am over stretching myself and then find it a bit painful using the joints afterwards. Hips are very important to me since following your channels I've gotten rid of knee pain. But how do I not over stretch?
Oh that did the trick
hey Doc, any suggestions for a complete leg workout( no weights) ? including vastus medialis!! thanks
SUPER MERCI
This looks good even w/out the weight.
YES
Oh my God, I did this with a 15 lb dumbell and the relief in the lower half. Didn't even realize it was thar tight until I did this.
Esta excelente, lo malo que ya no pude comprar más piezas con el descuento espero que vuelva a bajar
Check out the Olympic weightlifting teams warm up routine. They basically do the same thing with the 20kg barbell. That’s relatively light to them
This shit is life changing
I cannot believe at how easy this movement looks but how hard it is to do, especially if you challenge your range of motion
I'm thinking of moving to your continent to be able to be your trainee/patient.
Thank you very much for your work.
Great stuff ! Not questioning the master but do you realise when you get to bottom of your squat your knee done travel over your feet , more of a lateral direction ? Is this right as I always thought the feet have to be a bit splayed out to match the path of the knee
When my hip started feeling tight I knew where to come for answers. Can’t wait to get it loosened, but I have a few questions: Where does a Hip Opener belong? Before a workout, after? How long do you hold the position? How often is sufficient to do this specific stretch? Thank you!!
I know this is a year late, but im just gonna parrot what my coach has said. Do this before a workout, it gives you easier range of motion and lets you go deeper into squats, hold it for 10 seconds, about 3 times per leg. I do it any day im going to be squatting. Hope that helps anyone from the future looking through here
@@ernestb556 nice one thanks bro
This fixed my pain!
Hi. Thanks for the great video. You seem to be pretty flexible. Why do you still wear wightlifting shoes? Would you recommend them for everybody, even if someone has good ankle mobility?
Thanks!!
Hello amazing stretch. When doing this my left side glutes/SI joint pinche a little. What does it means what am i supposed to do ?
Hi Doc
I recollect the X thoracic rotation test from IG.
What would you suggest if i failed that test. I tried finding the video but couldn't. What would you suggest?
Excellent content as usual. Just one suggestion. The subtitles are added through voice recognition and come out to be really silly. Our dear Dr is named ‘Dr. And Horse’. Doesn’t matter. Its just that you deserve better doc. 👍👍
Squat or not, definitely useful as a means of general mobility 👍
My legs are on fire during this. I can´t really feeel the stretch... maybe it is like that, because I´m not used to the movement. But I will see how it goes and practice it. Thanks Doc!
Did this exercise help?
If I lie on my back and pull one knee to my chest I feel a lot of pain at the top front of my thigh (front hip)... any ideas? The pain gets worse if I put something under my butt and do this stretch... not sure what it is.
@squatuniversity why is Faber stretch not an alternative since you always using that test for looking for side differences?
